Shoreline Field Synthetic Turf Project
Last updated on November 10th, 2022 at 03:06 pm
Shoreline Field will see yearlong tournaments and games starting this Fall. Last March 7th, 2022, the City Council approved the selection committee's recommendation for the selection of Hellas Construction Inc., of Austin Texas for the design-build services for artificial turf for Shoreline Field and authorized staff to negotiate a contract and fees with this firm.
Funding for the Sports & Tourism Project is from the City's tourism tax and a portion reimbursed by FEMA 80/20. Other amenities are sponsored in part by the Gulf Breeze Sports Association.
